WAKE FORREST vs BOSTON COLLEGE STATE NCAA FOOTBALL BET ANALYSIS

Wake Forrest will host conference rivals Boston College at BB&T Field in North Carolina. If this game goes anything like these teams last 8 meetings points will be very hard to come by. Dating all the way back to 2010, this matchup has seen the total go under the suggested number every time and the total we have in this game is higher than any we have seen for those games over the past 8 matchups.

Both teams have seen some points scored in their first two games especially Boston College. They took their hope opener by a score of 55-21 over UMass and then followed that up by beating Holy Cross 62-14. While they topped 50 points in each of those two first games, they have not seen a defense even close to the level the Demon Deacons will bring into this one. Wake Forrest was 7th in the country last season and have held a very strong Boston College rushing attack to under 3 YPC over their last two match ups. In Wake Forrest’s first game this year they beat Tulane on the road 23-17 they then followed that up by crushing Towson 51-20. Just like the case with Boston College, they have not seen a defense even close to the one they will face here as the Boston College defense ranked third in the country in passing efficiency defense. This should mean their defense will be very effective against a pass heavy Wake Forrest offense.

Weather could also play a factor in this game as we could see some early effects of Hurricane Florence as we could see some rain here. Those conditions would definitely mean a sloppier game and less points scored. You’ve got to trust the history of this match up and back there to be less than 54 points scored here.
